Just picked up the donor. 1987 1.8GL Sierra - Pinto engined. Genuine 44k miles from new - i got all the MOTs to prove it, original paperwork, owners manual etc. It's great driving such an old car as you get so used to modern stuff. Engine and gearbox are cracking - got a good turn of speed on the motorway as well
Brakes are phenomonal ...... ly bad - no materr how hard you press you don't decelerate any quicker - but I think that's an orginal feature. Has a tendency to pull left and between 62 and 70 the wheel wobble is unplesant. Interior is stunning. Radio is like listening through two bean cans under water, but it does have a joystick to fade the music around the car. Oh and the tape rack under the armrest is a nice feature.
Seems almost too good to scrap!!
